  3. Summary

    For all of these works I set some kind of challenge for myself while writing them, sometimes you'll know what that challenge was, sometimes you won't. They're mostly collected here for my own benefit, but I do think they share character to a certain extend.

    Summary

    Various one-shot ficlets originally posted to Tumblr, mostly Shadowgast. Pairings and short descriptions will be listed in the chapter titles, any applicable CWs will be in the opening notes.

    Most recent addition (Shadowgast):

    They discuss their research until the fifteen minute mark, at which point Caleb’s hand finds its way atop Essek’s knee. Twenty minutes, and it’s traveled to his thigh. Twenty-five, and Essek begins to thread his fingers through the ends of Caleb’s hair, twice as scandalous.

    Twenty-nine minutes and fifty-seven seconds. Fifty-eight. Fifty-nine.

    “I think it is likely our friends have settled–”

    “Good.”

    Then Caleb climbs halfway into Essek’s lap and is dragged the rest of the way, and this is what he’s been itching for all day.

    Summary

    “Well then, I shall ask you a question,” said Essek, “Do you believe I should participate in conversation more than I do?”

    Caleb raised his head in alarm. Did his friend think he was being criticised? Did Essek interpret Caleb’s judgement of his own silence as reflected upon him? Caleb raised his hands plaintively, “No, not at all. In fact, I think I’d be a little taken aback if you did. Please understand, it is not silence itself that I dislike and I certainly do not condemn yours, only my...lack of ability.”

    “Why should you hold yourself to a standard you do not hold others to?"

    5 times Essek saw Caleb's unmasked self (and loved him all the same) and 1 time Caleb saw Essek's (and loved him the way he deserved).

    Summary

    While on a mission post-Predathos, Orym suffers a grievous injury. Seedling's magic can heal him, but Ashton will have to go to extreme lengths to get it back - and it soon becomes clear that he lost more than just his arm in the fight. Orym, Dorian and Ashton lean on each other for reassurance in the aftermath.

    (If I had a nickel for every time Orym lost and regrew a limb in one of my fics, I’d have two nickels. Which isn’t much, but it sure is weird that it happened twice. But then they had to go and canonically give Seedling the ability to restore severed body parts. What was I supposed to do, really?)

    Summary

    '“Good evening, Mr Wallace.” Came Jeeves’ cordial and very correct reply. I rather expected that to be the end of it, and I was hoping it too. I didn’t fancy appearing from a tree with Wallace hanging about. It engenders too many questions. “What were you doing up that tree?” being one of them.'

    For once it is Bertie who is in the know when it comes to a delicate tidbit of personal information. Now he perfectly understands the phrase 'ignorance is bliss'...
